Extrapleural Thoracoscopic Anterior Spinal Fusion: A Modified Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Approach to the Pediatric Spine

Video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has recently been developed as an alternative to thoracotomy for anterior spinal surgery. We report a case in which an extrapleural dissection was combined with VATS to further improve this approach.
